2 rescued after boat capsizes on Susquehanna river

YORK, Pa. (AP) — Two people have been rescued after their canoe capsized on the rain-swollen Susquehanna River in central Pennsylvania.

Rescue workers in York say they received a call from shore Sunday afternoon after someone saw the boaters struggling. They had been canoeing when their boat was flipped by a rush of water as the river swelled amid storms that swept across the region.

Susquehanna Fire Co. officials say the two were rescued after about 20 minutes.
